Stand-alone trml2pdf not working

Asked by Marc Rechté

Hello,
Trying to run trmpl2pdf.py as a standalone tool brings error like:

[mrechte@linux2 openerp-server]$ pwd
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/openerp-server
[mrechte@linux2 openerp-server]$ python report/render/rml2pdf/trml2pdf.py /tmp/test_001_hello.rml

Is it possible to use the rml2pdf renderer without openerp server ?

Thanks

Hello,
looks like there is a circular dependency in the import list, I tried to add "import osv" before "import utils" and it seems to work. When using OpenERP, most of those things are already imported before calling trml2pdf thus the problem doesn't occur, i guess.
Maybe it's worth a bug report...

Can you help with this problem?
